soooooo pretty !!!

(but top right corner vignetting is different with other corner)

No sure.. maybe is my lenses problem using Minolta 24-50 F4

been a long time since i posted here. nice to see some old faces around what you guys think of the A7II so far... personally i was very anxious to see what the sony olympus partnership would produce, so yea im pretty excited with the whole 5 axis steadyshot ala the Oly OMDs...

Who said sony partner with olympus?

Wow..on sale Dec 5th in Japan for USD1,600

Finally a compact looking FF

Thank you =P


Your effort is appreciated

The new shutter button placement alone is enough for me to buy one.
I do wish to have more phase detect sensors like a6000 though.

Sony bought a huge sum in Oly shares last year edi. It's pretty much a clear cut partnership edi.

Personally I'm also digging the new button placement, but still waiting for a rangefinder-style FF... Hopefully it will come one day. At the rate Sony is releasing cameras, it looks like it'll happen sooner rather than later.

Not sure how much of Oly tech went into Sony's 5 axis IBIS, as it's mentioned that Sony IBIS is built independently from the Oly system, but there's a high chance Sony engineers had a good look into the Oly blueprints. Stabilizing a FF sensor surely needs a higher degree of challenges compared to MFT sensors.

Then again, whether it's a collaboration or not, it's a win win situation for consumers.

almost buy an A7... luckily i stick to this thread and SAR...

now I hv to play the wait game~

My promotion RM 600 55-210 has arrived today !


My E Mount lens lineup, one ultra wide angle, one kit lens, one potrait lens, one tele zoom lens, hope I won't buy any lens in the near future 😨

please dont speculate wrong info, please use uncle google before simply speculate information.


1) Sony only invested 50billion Yen (around 640m USD that time) into olympus restructuring, which is merely 11% stake share. Sony is still the smallest investor in olympus, but gaining advantage to seal deals like olympus now are using Sony Sensors.
2) during yesterday morning announcement, Sony stated its a full sony design, without any help from other (point at olympus)
3) Sony has been doing this 5 axis for sometime, just that, the acquisition of Olympus share helped then prevent lawsuit.
4) if you read the launching notes, the 5 axis is more advance then oylmpus system, it can hybrid uses with OSS lenses. not to mention supporting the bigger sensor vs m43.

side note, having share in olympus allows sony to open their books (blue prints) how much sony refer their 5axis we do not know, but sure is olympus did not collaborate with sony to design this 5 axis.

anymore, say from a different perspective?

I don't think you will see a rangefinder style FF. Just a hunch.
I'm used to the hump nowadays and prefer it over the rangefinder style

So jelly!

Me only got 2 E-mounts so far. The kit 1650 lens and a black 50mm.
Looking forward to grab one of the 55-210 like yours. In black. Look gooding liao!

personally i'm not really concerned what kinda deal sony and oly have la. as long as consumers benefit something out of it, i'm sure sony's making the right move. how's the a7ii gonna benefit you as a photographer?
